  • "Enjoyed our stay, main problem was getting in and out of bath/shower."

    Bath very deep, a hand rail would have been a great help. Also bathroom door jams.

  • "This was our third stay at Tuksumduin."

    It is lovely cottage in a perfect location. Quiet with a beautiful view, yet close to shops, restaurants and the harbour. There's everything you need for a good stay and, although there is no onsite parking, there is a drop off area close enough so that you're not having to carry luggage any great distance. Small negatives - the shower is over the bath - something to hold onto when climbing out might help us "older" folk with short legs feel a little safer. A light on the corner of the outside passage - it's very dark, we used our phone torches to navigate our way to the front door. The mattress is a bit soft, but that's a personal preference. These points wouldn't put us off staying again and we will be back

  • "This was a very nice & spacious property, with lovely decor."

    But, could have been a bit cleaner - floors always seem to be a bit of a letdown on holiday. And there were kitchen trays out on the worktop that were dirty. The areas around the two security gates really need some lighting. And we did have problems locking & unlocking the front door. And finally the shower power was not great at all. Overall a pleasant stay. Great week in Whitby & excellent weather!

  • "The maintenance of this property is non existent."

    Sadly the property looks nothing like the advertised photos. Our issues were completely dismissed by the owner & by Sykes. A cleaner was sent 3 days into our holiday to resolve problems which we had partly rectified ourselves. The bed sheet which was too small for the bed was not replaced. The filthy marks on the bedroom walls were not removed. The thick dust on the wall hangings & ornaments was not cleaned. The cooker door which did not close was not fixed. We speak from the experience of staying in other beautifully kept properties in Whitby every year for nine years now. This could be a lovely property if it was maintained, thoroughly cleaned & given a fresh coat of paint throughout. We are not just speaking about a couple of weeks worth of dirt. This was a build up of dust, stains, cobwebs & rust over a long period of time.

    Thank you for your feedback. We do value customer comments however sadly we feel that some of your comments are not justified. Our housekeeping team work extremely hard to keep our property clean and we ourselves ensure that the maintenance is up to standard and reflective of the images of the property. We are sorry that it did not meet your expectations. Property Owner

  • "The cottage was clean and tidy and had a fine view of Whitby."

    It was in a good location and easy for us to get to the venues we wanted to visit. It would have been nice to have a phone number of the owners because I would have liked the parking scratch cards to have been explained. I only had a phone number for Booking.com, and was given the wrong information regarding the parking. It is a lovely cottage and we were very pleased with it.

  • "Great location."

    Like too many holiday flats, let down by silly little penny pinching. For example, no ladle, faulty scissors, useless peeler, too small pans, casserole. Dining table impossible to manipulate into a coffee table. But overall, good value for money.

    My partner has poor mobility issues for walking distances, it was great for him. We enjoyed the touch of the telescope and sat watching the waves over the harbour walls. Would love to be able to book again. All I can say is fantastic

    We arrived on a busy Saturday afternoon and couldn't find any parking so left the car in a carpark overnight. There was no problem finding a space on the Sunday morning and the scratch card system worked well Kind regards Carol Francis

  • "As will be seen from our other feedback answers, we loved our stay, the position, the comfort and that view of course."

    However, some things just let you down, things which must have been known about and yet not attended to. The cheap plastic toilet seat and cover were literally hanging off - I had to reattach the fitment myself but even then we lost all confidence in risking our nether regions! The front door lock was not square on to the door frame and so we could not gain entry or leave the property secure without a lot of pushing and pulling the door until we got alignment so that the key would turn - this was not something that just happened for us, it must have been known about and yet ignored. Finally, we had only two loo rolls to last two adults for four days, unless there was a hidden supply somewhere. So, these obviously are not deal breakers but totally unnecessary for us to have to deal with and they tarnish a great property for the want of a little care.

Your home away from home

Nestled in the heart of the thriving coastal town of Whitby in North Yorkshire is Tuksumdoin.

This fabulous, reverse-level holiday home benefits from a spacious and contemporary interior completed by two ground-floor bedrooms, a wonderful, first-floor, open-plan living space with spectacular views of the abbey and sea and a fantastic setting close to local amenities, the town’s endless attractions and North York Moors National Park; the perfect choice for families, friends or couples looking to explore North Yorkshire.

After a day full of exploration, cross the threshold into your new home-from-home and travel to the first floor where an open-plan living space greets you, unwind on the plush sofas in front of the electric flame-effect fire and watch on as the designated chef of the group gets acquainted with the fully-equipped kitchen.

Dine together at the coffee table which converts into a dining table, allowing you to enjoy dinner with an unbeatable view across the town to the North Sea and the beautiful Whitby Abbey.

When the evening draws to a close, travel downstairs to wash off the day in the bathroom before sloping off to sleep in either the king-size or twin bedroom.

During the day meander the charming streets of Whitby which are lined by independent shops and quirky boutiques as well as local stores where you can stock up on your essentials and pubs and bars ideal for those seeking vibrant nightlife or a delicious meal.

Wander down to the water’s edge where you can sample the town’s famous fish and chips before embarking on a challenging stroll up the 199 steps which offers breath-taking views across the North Sea; once here you can also see St Mary’s Church and the iconic ruins of Whitby Abbey.

Experience the coast from a unique perspective by hopping on a boat tour on the open water with a chance to spot seals, dolphins and whales!

The North York Moors National Park is also easily accessible and houses the Cleveland Way and Cinder Track, both are ideal for keen ramblers or cyclists and make the most of the beautiful countryside and coast.

All this and more awaits at Tuksumdoin.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
